Brandon Prust attacks Tuukka Rask on Twitter

[Rangers79]

Your family, especially children and spouse. Come first and foremost at any time over job or hobbies any day. You are literally all your children have, especially in a situation like that. Rask made the right choice.

Is that like a frog?

Short for troglodyte.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

The irony is that you're a scumbag for calling a scumbag a scumbag.

I never called anyone a scumbag. I just stated a fact.

You apparently don't understand how facts work.

 

[tsujimoto74]

I am kind of on the fence with this, like if there was some legitimate health issues which I heard than I can't blame Tukka, but other than that I do not know

It doesn't really matter how serious it ended up being. A family emergency is a family emergency. If this were a normal year, Rask misses 1-2 games for "personal reasons," and nobody really makes anything of it. The bubble forced a situation where, if he left, he had to stay gone. He did the thing I think virtually any father would.

This thread needs less Brandon Prust and more Maripier Morin.

I wonder what Prust thought of Craig Anderson taking a few months off from hockey in 2017 (and subsequently winning the Masterton for it).

Man. Joan Crawford was a catch back in the day.

You had your 15 minutes of fame. Go away. I never got mine

He's 100% right , i would never want to be on team with a quitter like that, hopefully he will get booed out of town if he ever decides to come back

You were picked last anyway, Gordon.

His one reply in the comment section of that thread illustrates even more how much of a dumbass he is.

Even if you’re presented a poor a opinion, you can at least still be seen a decent guy who just isn’t very smart. You don’t have to add asshole to list.

I find those two traits usually pair well with each other.

Rask's GM and teammates who know him and have information about his situation were supportive of his decision to go home, but I'm glad you're holding him to a higher standard!

That’s true as well.

I’m glad someone whose sitting in their moms basement can have an opinion about this. What a time to be alive.

 

[Canes]

I'm being serious, after being a punching bag for real fighters since he was at least 16 and with his style of play, he probably has the brain of a 90 year old with dementia. Unfortunately he still has the motor control and finger dexterity of someone his age so he tweets dumb shit.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Family emergency, yet was caught golfing in a different city without his family... the next day

Pics?

That was a rumor, Brandon.

 

[JianYang]

I don't remember him being controversial at all during his career, did I miss something? As I recall it, he was a decently respected fourth line grinder.

He's had his moments.

He called Paul Maclean a fat bug eyed walrus in the playoffs, but I have to admit, it made me laugh.

 

[Rebels57]

Garbage player. Garbage person.

Also, his chin has a chin.

 

[MattMartin]

Do we know yet why Tuukka left? I know I heard something about his family.

ROFLMAO at your avatar. That is one salty dude right there

What a garbage take. Congrats.

 

[RorschachWJK]

That chick is an idiot.

Most likely she is. But getting divorced from Prust means maybe she isn't a completely hopeless case.

Too bad ol’ Prusty was crying after the series ended.

Also the players were given the right to "not" play at all, regardless. Willie Desjardins did the right thing when we kicked him off the team. He is a grade A Douchebag.
